The powerful features of SurvPC are helping you to work faster

and more efficiently: ■ Store points with many features as coding (incl. auto line cre- ation), symbols, offsets, interval measurement (time, distance, slope [GNSS]) ■ Stake out points, lines as well as axe, cross profiles, DTMs ■ Area calculations and divisions ■ volume calculation by perimeter boundary and with dem as re- ference surface or fixed elevation base Combine and now integrate easily and quickly ac- curate measurements Total Station with Esri® MXD, ■ DTMs: Generate using imported points, incl. breaklines and MicroStation® DGN or AutoDesk® DWG formats. contours ■ Field-to-Finish: create the complete plan during the recording of survey points ■ Simple data exchange with comprehensive support of data for- mats including DXF, DWG, Shape, XML, DGN, ASCII, DTM; indi- vidual configurable Import/Export-Assistant ■ Quick switch between base, rover and total station ■ Easy feature code list administration on site incl. layers, symbols and GIS attributes ■ Create points out of graphical elements (snap end point of a Whether it comes to surveying dikes or water- line, center of a line, center of a circle etc.) courses, with Carlson SurvPC you have everything ■ Freehand drawing in map window to perform your work.

The Esri® map is surprisingly sharp and clearly displayed in the field, including built-in zoom resolution, ‘freeze / thaw’. This also applies to MicroStation® drawings. In both cases, there is no conversion, you work in the original map, and you can identify each feature, modify or expand through conventional snap selection. Land sur- veyors have access to the available Esri® maps of municipalities and water boards, utilities, state or national government, and SurvPC will automatically retrieve all map related attributes. There is no specific preparation necessary - the built-in Esri® engine reads and writes Esri® mxd documents allowing SurvPC to collect data and edit data directly into Esri® format. This makes it possible for sur- veyors and consultants to perform work in a uniform way for a va- 810-220-60
